To pace myself...
Friday, January 29, 2010
Talked to boss again last night.. coz I was so stressed, I burst out in office & exclaimed that I don't want to work already!
Part of me wants to solve the problem.. but part of me is overwhelmed by the amount of things I need to do!
So he called me to his cubicle & told me something which I think is very true.. to pace myself.. which I seriously need.. if not my energy will be drained by 1 mth.
Morale at work is very low.. pple are leaving.. pple are complaining to me.. I'm complaining to pple.. the mood is just not right.. sad. :(
It's my b'day today!!!! I shouldn't be upset.. should be happy happy.. shalala.. Muz stay cheerful.. muz really try to stay positive.

DESSERTS

So Stressed!!! Having headache! I've a love-hate relationship with work!
AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! My head is bursting.. keeps thinking abt work. Work actually left my mind for a day today until I just received a call from office again! Back to work tmr.. back to stress & tremendous pressure. I hope I can survive......
Maybe I need to stock up on panadols.. Tata..
I learnt something today & I think I should apply this mindset at work tmr.
"No matter what you do and wherever you are, there will be problems for you to solve. But problems are always a learning experience in life and they could actually create opportunities for all of us to grow and become a better person or think better. So... don't give up."

My Favourite Boss..
Thursday, January 21, 2010
Yeah! Very happy today! Super happy! *double grinz*
Dawn & Ivan treated Photo2 & Photo4 teams to Carousel at Royal Plaza on Scotts today.. my boss is Ivan.. he's my favourite boss! :)
Here's the link for the restaurant if u are interested to bring your parents/partners to.. http://dining.royalplaza.com.sg/
Wendy & Me.. A very nice colleague.. she told me once that she like this company because the people are nice & not much office politics.. To me, she's one of those nice pple! *hugz*
My favourite boss! *twigz* I'm smiling so happily because I'm taking photo w the nicest boss on earth! Maybe not the nicest on earth (that's abit exaggerating) but to me he's the nicest. He told me alot of things which I rem very clearly coz they are all v wise & true words.. or rather words that touches my heart.
Once he told me that work is just to earn a living, what really matters is not work but our lives outside work. Therefore, we must have work life balance & don't take work so seriously.. so from then on, I take things easier.
Then another instance which he touched me was when he said that he'll be my listening ear even if he can't solve my problems.. be it work related or outside work. I can always find him to talk. Sweet rite? Maybe the way I phrase it is not as good as him but at that instance when he talked to me, I really felt very touched & glad to have him as my boss.
Occasionally he'll call me to his cubicle & chit chat with me, go through issues with me, go through my work. At least, I feel that there's someone reading my work & I'm not wasting time doing them. And most of the times, it's one-to-one sessions, which I feel is better because I don't really like to present to alot of pple. I prefer discussion one-to-one, be it to my boss/meeting other departments. Feel that it's more conducive & productive than a long meeting inside a meeting room.
He also reads every email I sent him! My weekly report he'll help me rephrase in a short & sweet manner, teaches me alot of things, gives me alot of encouragements & motivations!
At a point of time when I wanted to quit, he spoke to me (dunno whether he knows I've the quitting intention).. & made me feel that I still have some prospects in this company. Guess it's the way he phrase things. Now, I'm happily working in the same company after 1 & 1/2 yr! It's a pretty long period.. & I'm willing to stay even longer. At least for now, I don't have the quitter mindset. :)
Decided to change my title from Carousel treat to dedicate this entry to my favourite boss.. I know he won't be reading this but I'm writing this like a diary in a form of happy memories I can look back on next time.
Ending off with a Sweet Photo of My Dearest Boss & Me.. *smilez*
